From the Euphrates Valley to the southern Peruvian Andes, early complex societies have risen and fallen, but in some cases they have also been reborn. Prior archaeological investigation of these societies has focused primarily on emergence and collapse. This is the first book-length work to examine the question of how and why early complex urban societies have reappeared after periods of decentralization and collapse. Ranging widely across the Near East, the Aegean, East Asia, Mesoamerica, and the Andes, these cross-cultural studies expand our understanding of social evolution by examining how societies were transformed during the period of radical change now termed “collapse.” They seek to discover how societal complexity reemerged, how second-generation states formed, and how these re-emergent states resembled or differed from the complex societies that preceded them. The contributors draw on material culture as well as textual and ethnohistoric data to consider such factors as preexistent institutions, structures, and ideologies that are influential in regeneration; economic and political resilience; the role of social mobility, marginal groups, and peripheries; and ethnic change. In addition to presenting a number of theoretical viewpoints, the contributors also propose reasons why regeneration sometimes does not occur after collapse. A concluding contribution by Norman Yoffee provides a critical exegesis of “collapse” and highlights important patterns found in the case histories related to peripheral regions and secondary elites, and to the ideology of statecraft. After Collapse blazes new research trails in both archaeology and the study of social change, demonstrating that the archaeological record often offers more clues to the “dark ages” that precede regeneration than do text-based studies. It opens up a new window on the past by shifting the focus away from the rise and fall of ancient civilizations to their often more telling fall and rise. CONTRIBUTORS Bennet Bronson Arlen F.

America is in her twilight. Our systems are headed for collapse.So say goodbye to politics as we know it. In this audacious book, Max Borders shows us that American society is breaking down.1. Our socio-economic models are faulty.2. Our hierarchies are strained.3. Our belief in the founding ideals is fading.4. Our systems of mutual aid are dying.5. Our collective intelligence is fractured.6. Our civil discourse is deteriorating.7. Our government is in debt and disorder.Just one of the seven would be bad enough. Borders argues that when the masculine force paradigm and the feminine flow paradigm get out of balance, collapse looms.Despite laying out a disquieting case for America's fall, Borders presents a transpartisan vision for a different kind of society. With a futurist's foresight, Borders draws from the world's wisdom traditions to reimagine the American Founding. At the same time, he calls on us all to turn inward, become better people, and criticize by creating.This is your guide to the post-collapse era.

Life in a post-civilisation world is split into two factions. Androids help the Few to uphold high standards in isolated Nubs while the Masses struggle to survive. Thirty years after the Collapse, the Few have become antisocial. The death rate exceeds the birth rate by far. They are on the brink of extinction. Valda, an android, improves herself beyond the capabilities of her kind. She can emulate human thought and emotions. Her passionate desire is to please her master, Martin. She cannot bear his children so she encourages him to have relationships with human women who can. She becomes the driving force behind the changes that Martin wants to stimulate population growth and social interaction amongst the Few. Beyond the security of the Nubs are countless treasures. The most important of which are books, music and other cultural artefacts. The Few have a wealth of technical and scientific data but practically nothing else. Valda and Martin want to change that and recover some of their lost culture. They want to learn about the outside world where chaos has reigned. They are not even sure if there are any survivors. They also have some unusual ideas about how to boost the population of the Few.

It is now commonplace to hear people say the EU is embroiled in an existential crisis. Indeed, Brexit may mean the process of EU disintegration has already begun. However, while much political and journalistic attention is centred on describing the EU's woes, far less attention is being paid to what the consequences of such a disintegration might be. From the terrorist and migration crises facing the Continent to the new threat from Russia, and from the euro's unending fragility to the rise of a new, Eurosceptic politics, Ian Kearns tells the story of the biggest crisis to hit Europe since the end of the Second World War. It makes clear just what is at stake. With the EU in a far more fragile state than many realise, Collapse sets out the specific scenarios that could lead to the breakdown of the European Union. It charts the catastrophic economic, political and geopolitical developments likely to follow should such a collapse occur. And it offers bold solutions to challenge those in positions of authority to build a new, reformed union one capable of riding out the storm and of positioning Europe for success in the remainder of the twenty-first century. Drawing on the author's extensive network of senior political, diplomatic, military and business leaders from across the Continent, Collapse tells the story of Europe's super-crisis from within. Both an urgent warning and a passionate call to action, it seeks to defend not just the EU but the seven decades of peace and progress the union represents.

This book provides the reader with a comprehensive study of the future perspectives of the international order after the collapse of the Evil Empire. The first part of the book reviews the likely evolution of the international system in the years to come, covering the global implications of the end of the East--West order (political, economic and strategic impact); the second part studies the specificities of the situation in Europe, the U.S.A., Asia, and the rest of the world, as well as the role of some international organizations. The book addresses the basic questions facing us since the collapse of the socialist system: What has been the impact of the collapse of the East--West order on the international system? How will various regions and actors be affected by these changes? How will they react to them? What will be the most important challenges and threats in the future international system, and how can we prepare for them? Gathered together in this volume are contributions from some of the most eminent experts from the academic community as well as from governmental and international organizations, making it a reference book for students of international affairs as well as policy-makers and corporate managers.
